Chapter 136: The Fight Begins
Just when Baltu was stunned, Liu Pojun pushed him and said, "Wolf King, don't you want to thank Lord Longen?" ”
Baltu, the Wolf King, also carefully studied the Chinese language, as well as the culture of the Great Zhao. He immediately returned to his senses and thanked him: "Thank you, Lord Longen." ”
"Okay, okay." Zhao Zhelian said two good words, and said with a satisfied look on his face: "From now on, everyone will be their own family." Wolf King, until the end of this battle, you temporarily listen to the orders of Liu Du's commander. ”
"Yes!" The wolf king responded with a straight face.
Next, Liu Pojun had a careful exchange with the Wolf King, because the two sides were currently in a secret state, the Jin Kingdom was on guard. The ringing horse is still the ringing horse, and the Great Zhao army is still the Great Zhao army. The wolf king, on the other hand, returned to his wolf army first and reorganized his armaments. It's just that in terms of supplies, the wolf king doesn't value it. Xiangma itself is an army that feeds the war with war, and if it adds too many Great Zhao weapons, it is not beautiful.
At the secret banquet that followed, the bastard of the wolf king wanted to take revenge, and he frequently persuaded him to drink, and poured Zhao Zhe several catties of liquor back and forth. Zhao Zhe originally drank a lot of alcohol, so-so, but he had to go through several times of washing and cutting his hair during the cultivation process, which made his physique enhance a lot. But Rao is like this, and after a few catties of spirits, he is also drunk.
In the end, with the support of Yun Bingmeng, he returned to the backyard. As soon as he returned to the backyard, Yun Bingmeng helped him relieve his hangover. If you want to say that Yun Bingmeng's cold surname is true, it is really a weapon for sobering up. Before he tossed a few times, Zhao Zhe was a little more conscious.
Zhao Zhe, who was sober for a while, took the opportunity to lie down in her arms, and before she could blush and want to push away. Zhao Zhe suddenly straightened up and muttered: "Meng'er, I can have you, it is the happiest thing in my life." ”
Where did Yun Bingmeng expect that this person's love words would be repeated over and over again, just a few sentences. The comforting words of love fell into her heart, warm, as if she was going to melt her heart. Unconsciously the movements in his hands stagnated, he let him lie on his lap, and whispered in a hot voice: "Concubine, concubine body has not had time to congratulate the emperor on winning the loyalty of the wolf king." ”
"The allegiance of the Wolf King is of course very pleasing to me." Zhao Zhe's love words were offensive, and he attacked mightily, and said softly: "But compared with my dream, everything is so unimportant." Even if it is Da Zhao's country, the whole world. For my important surname, it is not as good as one ten-thousandth of my family's dreams. ”
"The Emperor~" Yun Bingmeng's delicate body softened slightly, and the starry eyes that seemed like treasures were as tender as water, and the whole delicate body couldn't help but tremble slightly, soft, and said softly: "Meng'er, where is Meng'er The emperor said so well?" ”
Zhao Zhe took advantage of the situation to grab her slender willow waist, half-sat up, lifted the crystal jade chin with a somewhat wild posture, looked at her deeply, and said softly: "No, Meng'er, you are my most cherished baby." With that, he leaned over gently.
Yun Bingmeng, who seemed to know what was going to happen next, was pretty and drunk for a while. Let his lips be fiercely imprinted on her soft jade lips.
……
A month and a half has passed in a hurry, and according to the report of the spies, some days ago, the army movements of the Houjin State have become more and more frequent. Just after the autumn harvest, Houjin gathered 200,000 elite troops on the border line. After issuing a letter to conquer the Great Zhao, the troops were divided into four routes and marched towards the territory of Liaodong in the Great Zhao State.
Da Zhao, who had been prepared for this battle for a long time, also immediately issued an edict to the world, in which dozens of crimes of the Houjin State were listed, and he swore to the death to make the invaders come and go. Liu Pojun implemented the policy of clearing the wilderness early, and because of the war on the border for many years, there was not much grain production. The entire back line of Suo shrank inward, forming a barren land with no people and no supplies for hundreds of miles. The 120,000 frontier guards, the 280,000 ace troops of the Central Army, and the 300,000 local guards, a total of 700,000 troops, were hoarded in various forts and cities.
Of course, so many military forts and acropolis were not built casually. All of them are taken into account, such as joint operations, mutual support, difficult terrain, etc. The stars are densely packed, like nails stuck in the earth. If the Later Jin State wants to conquer Liaodong, it must pull out all these nails one by one, otherwise if those military forts are left in the rear of the army, not only will the supply line be cut off at any time, but it will also be easy for the Zhao army to raid from the waist and rear of its army. Any army, even a mighty army of a hundred battles, would suffer great losses if it was allowed to attack from the flanks and rear.
And then Jin wants to pull out the nails one by one, which is not a simple matter. The military fort was originally used as a place for the garrison to defend, not only guarded by the city wall, but also occupied the condescending convenience, and each fort had the help of sharp artillery. With the help of the walls, the soldiers had at their disposal a variety of defensive means, such as commanding bows and arrows, crossbows, ballistae, artillery, and even some primitive firearms. In addition, sassal wood, boiling oil, horse rejection, trench traps, etc. are all indispensable weapons for defending the city.
Even the soldiers of the Later Jin Kingdom are skilled in bows and horses, and their combat power is outstanding. But if you want to win more with less, it is not easy to capture a military fort or even a city. And the Tunpu are all involved in each other, and the two sides can help each other. Once a certain tun is besieged, except for the soldiers who defend the tun can resist the enemy with a geographical advantage, the rest of the fort troops can rush to the scene in a short time and attack the opponent inside and outside. Of course, it is also necessary to consider whether the opponent is encircling the point and sending reinforcements, which requires the flexible command of the general. As for some of the more agile and mobile cavalry units, they need to be more agile in their operations. It is necessary to sometimes unite the army, sometimes divide the troops, and carry out the tasks of rushing, galloping, chasing and suppressing back and forth.
Such a mighty war between the two countries is not that the two sides gather good men and horses to meet everyone in a place to fight. As early as the beginning of the entry of the Houjin army, the scouts of the two sides began an extremely cold and bloody contest. The scouts of any army are the most elite and nimble soldiers. Perform enemy detection, kill enemy scouts, set traps, disarm traps, and more.
In this war, Da Zhao also has a great advantage. It was Zhao Zhe who sent the national teachers to play a role in the conscription orders issued by the various sects, and according to reports, nearly sixty percent of the sects agreed to send masters to support the army after a little hesitation after receiving the friendly conscription order. The rest, after secretly reading out Zhao Zhe's "vicious" conscription order, were really afraid of offending the emperor, and after provoking the emperor's anger, they sent troops to exterminate their sect, and had to send masters from the sect to support.
The Seven Great Masters, even those who were cultivating in retreat, were recruited by a lot of them. These seven grandmasters are all masters of various famous sects, some are good and some are evil, but one thing in common is that they all have a big business and too many scruples.
In addition to the seven Wang Pin Grandmasters, there were also twenty-one first-rank masters and fifty-seven second-rank masters who received the call-up order. Liu Pojun was not polite at all, and gathered the five first-grade masters in the hands of Yun Bingmeng and Zhao Zhe. The eight Wang Pin Grandmasters were divided into four teams, and the rest of the first-rank and second-rank masters were evenly distributed. Four teams with extremely fierce and terrifying combat effectiveness were formed. Deal with the enemy's four-way army, infiltrate the enemy's front line, and cooperate with your own scouts to clear the enemy's scouts.
A group of two Wang Pin grandmasters, five or six first-grade, and a dozen second-grade. This kind of fierce team is extremely strong, although there are not even twenty people. But not to mention the opponent's mere scout team, even if you encounter an army of about 1,000 people, you won't be scared by the opponent in a head-to-head battle. If you carry out tactics such as harassing guerrillas, night raids, etc., it is not a joke to slowly encroach on and annihilate a thousand-strong team.
Of course, Liu Pojun did not advocate that Wang Pin's team do stupid things to kill the enemy's regular army. After all, such a powerful combat power cannot be easily wasted and lost. Not to mention the first and second grades, even the master of the Wang Pin Grandmaster is not an immortal body. Once caught in the encirclement of hundreds of enemy elites, the possibility of dying in battle is very large, and every grandmaster master, even a second-grade master, is a precious resource of the country, and it is not easy to lose.
The team composed of such a powerful master, not to mention its terrifying combat effectiveness, its action and stealth ability are also extremely powerful. The master of light and second grade, when he bursts out with the most powerful movement speed, will not be inferior to the galloping horse in a short period of time. All kinds of light skills, listening and perceiving, are not comparable to those elite scouts of the enemy.
After giving the order to bypass and not fight when encountering a team of more than 100 people on the other side, the four teams of the elimination team with amazing combat power began to play a huge role. The elite scouts carefully cultivated and trained by the enemy, small teams and small teams, quietly disappeared into the land of Liaodong. Scouts are an extremely important branch of the army, the eyes, nose, and ears of an army. Among the enemy's 50,000 troops on each road, there are only a thousand scouts who are killed, where can they withstand the death of dozens or dozens of them a day? Especially those who have successfully formed the grandmaster group, and feel that so many people are wasted together, and they are divided into two and become eight squads.
In this way, Houjin's scouts died faster. Although the scout is extremely elite, he is proficient in the art of fighting. But when he encountered a shameless first-grade and second-grade master, or even a grandmaster, he could only drink hatred one by one. The various armies of the Later Jin Dynasty, under the large number of scouts were consumed, and the march was extremely difficult. There was no leader of that army who dared to rashly march without the scouts being discovered. Once you fall into the enemy's trap, the losses can be great.
